rainmac how different is that, hubby should be pleased

groovygirl that's a lovely 1st card, like the way the happy is on the side

rusty brilliant, and the final touches, bar code on the back, perfect

hope u all have a nice day, at your crafting day out.

I'm going to germany next week s-i-l is 30 tomorrow and she is having a pink parrty, so i made her a card and gave her new look gift vouchers, and bought her a pink gift set from argos.

this is the card, and on the inside i wrote the traditional german happy birthday song, hope she likes it.

i got the shoes on the right from a weblink that saveapenny posted the other day, thanks.

SaintChris that is lovely, I love the dressess and little coat hangers. :j

Your SIL will love it.

Groovygirl - your card is lovely too. Im a bit out of touch with kiddies programes as mine are 12 and 16.

Rustyflange - here is a couple of pictures of the card on its side that you wanted to see, it doesnt lie down completely flat though.




On a completely different note and I know that there is a scrapbooking thread but heres my very first 12 x 12 scrapbook page for my nephew Archie.

Thanks Chris

Minimacka I thought you had taken it out in the garden :rotfl:

Thankyou for the picture, I cannot believe how good it looks I would love to do something like this but I am not clever enough! Where did you get your ideas from? is there a tutorial somewhere?
I love the scrapbook page! looks lovely.

Rustyflange - I use this website a lot to get ideas and here is the instructions that i used for the book i made.

Have a go you will find it easier than it looks.

Minimacka - I didn't start the book card, I went in a huff and stormed off upstairs and killed some zombies on the xbox instead. I love your scrapbook page - I can't believe its your first attempt.

Rustyflange - really original card, I think its fab. I love how you've put "part of a multipack" on the back.

Thanks for the advice saveapenny, part of it is that I get so frustrated when I can't find everything.

Saint-Chris - gorgeous card, I love the dresses - so cute!

GroovyGirl I love your card! Did you just print out Iggle and Upsy?
SaintChris Your card is lovely, nice and girlie
Minimacker I am soooo jealous of you! You are very talented!

I've only been in work for 3days and there is loads to catch up on!!
I LOVE coming on here I'm full of flu and feeling so sorry for myself seeing all your lovely cards has cheered me up!

I think that I read on here that you can go to a shop called the Paper Mill and fill a A4 box with card for about £6. Can anyone confirm that this is true - its just that our nearest Paper Mill shops are 70 miles away either way, and may go out for the day tomorrow to find one of them, but don't want a wasted trip if you can't do it anymore. Thanks.

Brilliant card Saint Chris.

Hi,

Can I ask where you got the dresses and hangers from - was it a website or shop?

Thanks
